I always prefer trucks. Vans are nice because your load is constantly secure but you're incredibly limited to what you can haul just from size alone. If you have the money, you can get as big of a...
I have a 2000 Ford Taurus wagon and that's hard enough scrapping out of. I can't imagine using anything smaller. Like others have said, use Craigslist. Its the easiest way to find a beater van for...
Now if i could get a pay day like that, id be driving a car that doesnt feel like its going to kill me
Id drive it
Very wasteful definitely. I was getting some 5 or 6 foot strands too. I couldnt believe they were throwing that away
Its 100 feet a day. Definitely not all one piece. It actually wasnt all 12 gauge but its what i got the most of. The reason i got so much was because the electrician was in training. Every time he...
If i had them, id put them on CL for $35 so someone can talk me down to $25. Better than scrap price.
I take almost everything off if its in good shape. All body panels, wheels, gas tank, exhaust system, most of the interior, trans. The engine i save for last and let people take what they need off...
A little over a month ago, i started a construction job building a day care center near me. I talked to my boss about taking home the scrap on the job. He says sure and actually started helping me...
Earlier in the year, i was getting close to $3.40. I noticed it was slowly going down but i never expected it to drop like this though
I was thinking about holding onto mine until spring as well. I need the money but not bad enough to give it up for $0.50 less per #
To me, this sounds like a really stupid question but ive been curious and cant seem to find much on it. Do some scrapyards take mercury? Im almost positive i cant sell it on Ebay and i cant really...
Ive tried this before. Put up a fake ad (test ad) on Craigslist to see if anyone would be interested in buying them. Within a day, i had a few people wanting to buy 20+ each at $2.50 a pallet. I...
I havent checked the prices lately but, about a month ago, i took a couple loads of iron into my yard. About 600 pounds just in rotors. Iron prices were the same for me as they have been over the...
It may be a while before i can even start on an engine swap. Seem to be lacking a place with a roof right now. Hopefully the engine runs alright so i can focus on the rust and think about getting it...
Thank you. I will need it.
Everyone hates on the 7.3s (at least over here) but theyre great engines. I will say that there are definitely more powerful diesel engines available but im a Ford guy...
Im more of a metal, industrial, aggrotech, etc. kind of guy but Lindsey Stirling is excellent. Although, i prefer her earlier work from 2011 and 2012 and, of course, her with Pentatonix in Radioactive
So, a few days ago, i was scouring Craigslist late at night trying to find a decent deal on car i could flip quick. I came across a nice older truck and ended up calling the guy the next morning. I...
I use to have a couple minivans for scrapping. First one was an 02 Voyager. Got almost 30 on the highway thanks to the 2.4(?). Second was a 91 Pontiac Trans Sport (The Dust Buster). That thing got...
Cl is a lot of fun around here when youre not the one trying to sell something. Being within a few miles of Detroit means i get all the crazies every time i post a car. A month or so ago i was trying...
Im in the same boat as mikeinreco. Did some stupid stuff a few years ago. To make things worse, im a drop out with a record and a bad back that will only get worse. I worked a few jobs before i...
I wish i did. That list is everything i have,as far as i know
Greibach Instruments Microampmeter Model 700
2 General Electric Portable Double Bridges. I believe both are B-19s
Triplett Electrical Instrument Vacuum Tube Voltmeter model 850
esi Electro...
I want to put a light bar on top too. The classic style but i want to get the pushbar up front first
